Many airlines fly from London to Sydney (known as “the kangaroo route”); which carrier you choose may depend on where you want to stopover.

Qantas is Australia’s national carrier and operates flights from Heathrow to Sydney via Dubai. Emirates also flies from Heathrow to Sydney via Dubai and code-shares with Qantas.

Qantas’s flagship lounge at Heathrow Terminal 3 opens in late 2017, occupying a split-level space with seating for 230 guests. Open to both First and Business Class customers, the lounge features a Rockpool menu and dining experience, full service bar, children’s zone, business facilities, showers and full bathroom facilities. The airline currently utilises its A380 aircraft on flights from Dubai to Sydney, featuring an onboard lounge for first and business class passengers. In August 2017 the airline announced it would be reconfiguring the aircraft to feature additional premium seating and provide more space in the onboard lounge.

Cathay Pacific connects in Hong Kong, Etihad in Abu Dhabi, Thai Airways in Bangkok, Qatar Airways in Doha and Malaysia Airlines in Kuala Lumpur. Both British Airways and Singapore Airlines stop in Singapore on their way to Sydney. If you need to fly from Gatwick Airport out of convenience, Emirates operates flights from Gatwick to Sydney via Dubai.

Getting to and from the airport

There are taxi ranks at arrivals when you land at Sydney Kingsford Smith airport – be aware that a toll will be added to your fare. You can also reach Sydney easily by public transport, either by taking the train from the train station directly beneath the terminals, or by hopping on a bus from outside the terminal. To catch a train or bus, you will need an Opal card or Opal single ticket. Using an Opal card is the easiest and most affordable way to travel in Sydney and you can top up the balance in the train stations.

Where to stay in Sydney
